  - Of course. - ty97 Nov 8, 12:28
But it comes with a free frogurt! -- nm - Don Homer Nov 8, 12:24
ooh, and it could break, or get wet, or fall down, or burn, or get infested by dripping honey and giant spiders! -- nm - *hopes for a new hyperventilation record* Nov 8, 12:23 24
- or the market could drop further and I could be upside down in a mortgage. Or I could get laid off and not find another job. - ty97 Nov 8, 12:25 23
  - The chances of being upside-down are very low with a decent down payment. -- nm - mara Nov 8, 12:33
  - don't worry, if it gets really bad you'll get a bailout!....nm - x Nov 8, 12:30
  - get a telescope so you can keep an eye on incoming astroids -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 8, 12:29
  - then why buy? -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 8, 12:28 8
    - what if I keep renting and never build equity and lose all my money in a canned meat ponzi scheme?! - ty97 Nov 8, 12:30 7
      - sigh, i wasnt trying to be silly - tRuMaN Nov 8, 12:34 5
        
        I know you weren't. I'm just blowing off stress - ty97 Nov 8, 12:35 3
        
        if you are rushing into this and justifying it because of the low prices - tRuMaN Nov 8, 12:41 1
        
        this, exactly. -- nm - loosilu Nov 8, 12:43
        
        i thought you loved riding bottoms. ... -- nm - TFox Nov 8, 12:41
        
        I'm with you. If you're really freaked out you shouldn't do it. -- nm - loosilu Nov 8, 12:34
      - Then you have what is known as a high quality problem. -- nm - loosilu Nov 8, 12:30
  - Or the balloons could inflate and you'd be trapped with some annoying little porker on the front porch for the flight! -- nm - Max Nov 8, 12:26
  - Or a giant snake could swallow you whole. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 8, 12:25
  - you're planning to own it for a few years, right? and you would have a down payment and an emergency fund? -- nm - loosilu Nov 8, 12:25 8
    - But I might have to *use* my emergency fund. ACK! -- nm - ty97 Nov 8, 12:28 7
      - I did for the last year. I'm not dead. -- nm - loosilu Nov 8, 12:30 3
        
        or...are you? -- nm - ty97 Nov 8, 12:33 2
        
        What if you wake up one day and everyone else is a zombie? Then you just blew money on a house when you can have your pick of any house for free! -- nm - Max Nov 8, 12:35
        
        then being dead isn't half bad. -- nm - loosilu Nov 8, 12:34
      - But what if you spontaneously combust?! -- nm - Don Homer Nov 8, 12:30 2
        
        What if there's a mysterious unopened box in the attic? Should you open it? YES. But really? NO. Conundrum! -- nm - Max Nov 8, 12:31
        
        ahhh, sweet relief -- nm - ty97 Nov 8, 12:30
